Popped up again in my feed so I watched it again! I've been taking mine as an "all round" travel blanket. I love it for a nap when I don't want to disturb a freshly made bed. ( I am on my third 1/2 and 1/2 now!)
@@EdibleThoughtsMakes I have the opal lavender/mustard yellow going. I did buy your zinnia combo- bright pink/bright orange, but may use it for something else. Plenty of time to decide. Got the advance sale notice from Purl Soho (I'm sure you did too!) and bought a little stuff. They must wonder what I am doing with all the yarn! Right now I have the Daily Pullover in my lap. (Black.) I stopped working on the body to do the v-neck. Got worried it looked huge, and not good. I didn't want to spend all the time on the body and sleeves to have it look wonkie. Goal is to finish this up tonight and make a decision on its future. You ALWAYS inspire me. I appreciate that! Karen (I bought the seed stitch bundle-blueberry- to take on a road/train trip this month. Cast it on and it seems like it will go very quickly.)
@@karenclarke301 Lavender Opal + Mustard is GORGEOUS. Modern and classic simultaneously! I have the Daily Pullover in my queue - good for you on taking pause to think about the fit! So many beautiful projects!
What a great video! I've been knitting a lot of shawls because they're fun and a great way to use some special yarns, but I've realized I have no idea how to wear them. Styling videos like this are super helpful - thank you!
Oh my goodness, that last view of how to wear is perfection! As a Minnesota resident, I am all in for knitting this now, over and over again. Blessings!
Thanks for these wearing/styling tips, Stephanie! Someone at Rhinebeck showed me another way that works well with a large shawl: take one edge of your shawl square, and fold it over about 9-12” wide. Place shawl around your neck from behind, the folded part becomes like a 'collar' of sorts, and it goes around your neck in the back and down each side in front like 'lapels'. You could secure at chest area with a shawl or brooch pin or magnet pin. You can place your arms under some of the fabric that hangs at your sides, and could even cinch it with something to make 'arm holes' at the wrists, or cinch around waist with a belt. Sorry if I’m not describing all this clearly enough lol! Basically I like how the generous fold gives you a 'collar'.
I'm back to say you did inspire me to make my own !/2 and 1/2. Finished last night, and was a little disappointed that I couldn't make it fit to stay on. Then I remembered your video! So many ways to style it that I hadn't tried! And I love that you made the little snap strap to help with the styling. I did order a shawl pin, but I like your idea better. I'll make one too! Thanks for being there when I needed you! Karen
Thank you so much for this video! I am so bad at styling shawls and I always see people with theirs styled so practically and beautifully and I can’t figure out what they did. I definitely want to make this!
You are so welcome Sandra! I'm planning on making different ones for different shapes. The wearing won't be necessarily drastically different but sometimes it can help to talk it out and see it in action! I have a long crescent, semi-circle, and long asymmetrical triangle to film.
Thank you so much for this video. I'm actually inspired to knit one myself. But tell me one more thing, please. I love your skirt with the big pockets on the side. Did you make it yourself and if so what is the pattern called?
Hello, thank you for the video. I really love your half and half triangle shawl. May i ask you to tell me which colours these are? It‘s such a beautiful combination. 😍 best regards, Marie.
Thank you so much Marie! The one in this video I used Purl Soho's Linen Quill in Rosewood Pink and Rose Granite. If you're curious for more on it, check-out Episode 70: th-cam.com/video/J8iE7B2aZgE/w-d-xo.html. Take care!
@@EdibleThoughtsMakes many, many thanks for your answer and the link to more of your beautiful wrap which suits you so well. Now I’m excited to order the wool and i am looking forward to having one soon as well. Thanks a lot . 🤗

It’s makes for a lovely blanket! What color combo is your current one??

HOORAY!!!! Oh I'm so glad this video could turn it around for you. Cheers!!
Thank you,very much for your reply
You’re welcome!❤️
The last fold over method is revolutionary! I would have never thought to do that! Thanks for a great video!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you and you're welcome!
I have resisted the urge to cast on the H&HTW... but this is whittling down my defenses! gahhh
😂 I mean if it doesn’t work out, just rip it out!! No harm in casting on if you’re itching to cast on??? 🤷🏻♀️
Thanks for sharing the ways to style the half & half! Very helpful.
You are so welcome! Thank you 💖
Thank you! perfect video to share with half & half wrap gift recipients!
You are so welcome! Hooray!

Fun and informative video. May actually make this a 2022 project. (And LOVE the sweater!)
Thank you so much Karen!

So very helpful , thank you.
Thank you and you’re welcome!
Much needed. Thank you.
You're so welcome! Thanks for watching Patricia!
Your tutorial on subtatuting wrap and turn for german shot rows is the best!!
May I ask what cast on and bind off you used.
Thank you...LM
Old Norwegian cast on and I bind off “regularly” with a double pointed needle that’s a few sizes bigger so it isn’t too tight!
I have a tutorial here on how I do the cast on without having to estimate how much yarn to use: th-cam.com/video/cDZxygwamog/w-d-xo.html
Delightful!
Thank you Angie! 💞

Thank you! I did sew it. It’s the Purl Soho's Gathered Skirt for All Ages

Wonderful, thanks so much for the link. Another thing on my list to make for myself now 😉. Have a great day. All the best, Sabine

THANK YOU!
You're welcome!
thank you for ideas on how to wear the wrap.
Did you block your wrap when finished
You’re welcome! Yes I did! Blocking evened out the tension and stretched out the garter to be shaped more into a square.
